August Haiku

in stifling dry heat wings flap in a cloudless sky . . . a bird soars upward Aug. 17, 2020 for Tania Kitchin's Haiku - Nature Themed 2 Poetry Contest written yesterday as I walked my dog and noticed a lone bird above me

Strong Haiku. At first glace, doesn't push the 'girly buttons' and cliche stuff. It's one that segments itself into the brain a little while after reading. Summer harsh truth snared in few words. Huge Congratulations!

Well done, Andrea, our birds flutter in the dirt to cool themselves since they don't want to fly too high off the ground and lose sight of land--afterall, we are an island, Congrats and Aloha! William
